Description

Anglo Zulu War British Line Infantry Regiment

A casual look at Tommy Atkins of the Victorian period gave little away about
his fighting abilities. Standing 5´5" on average, and often shorter, he may or
may not be able to read or write. This appearance was deceptive, however. The
average British redcoat was the most dangerous animal in Africa, equipped as he
was with the Martini-Henry breech-loading rifle which he was capable of firing
15 times a minute out to 1200 yards range in volley fire if needs be.

His legendary discipline, his marching ability ´enough to traverse all
manner of terrain´ and his determination to fight his enemies, which were
legion, all made the British redcoat an implacable foe.

Well led, well-equipped and thoroughly trained in his abilities, he blazed a
trail for Empire all over the world. Cheerful and confident the redcoats of the
County Regiments served their sovereign well, smashing their enemy with
concentrated rifle fire and, if necessary, selling their lives dearly behind the
thrust of their wicked long bayonets.

Our Redcoats represent any British unit of the Anglo-Zulu War.
